How far would you go for success? What would you sacrifice — and at what cost?
This gripping drama is about ambition, identity and the cost of belonging.
Amrit Singh (Omid Abtahi), a practicing Sikh, is a brilliant transplant surgeon rising in the high-stakes world of American medicine.
But as he climbs the ranks, he faces mounting challenges — racial profiling, workplace discrimination and a system that demands painful compromises.
A pivotal event ultimately forces him to face the choices he’s made — and what they truly mean.
